"The bottom line is that the [ipod] technology is something students really love"

Advice to Other Colleges

• Understand that you’ll have a few bumps in the road — but know that an iPod program will pay for itself many times over, academically and financially.
• Solicit proposals from interested faculty members; set a deadline for submissions. This will readily identify those who understand the potential of iPod to enhance the learning experience.
• Consult with other schools that have launched a similar project. You’ll save yourself a lot of footwork down the road.
• Create a comfort-level that encourages creativity in your faculty. They will rise to the challenge.
